Governor Hochul today provided an update to New Yorkers as heavy rainfall continues throughout the State and continues to impact widespread areas in the Mid-Hudson, Finger Lakes, Central New York and North County regions. On Sunday, Governor Hochul declared a State of Emergency in Orange and Ontario Counties as numerous road closures and reports of flooding were addressed by state and local responders.

Between Sunday and Monday, more than eight inches of rain was reported in parts of the Mid-Hudson Region (Orange County), and more than five inches of rain were reported in the Finger Lakes Region (Ontario County). As the State Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Services field staff began damage assessments in Orange and Rockland Counties today, Governor spoke with federal officials from the White House, FEMA and U.S. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand today regarding the ongoing emergency and the potential for federal assistance to help rebuild.

 

While much of the storm has passed through New York, it’s critical to remain vigilant,” Governor Hochul said. “I’m so grateful to every first responder, state worker and local leader who has stepped up to care for their neighbors in the wake of unprecedented flooding. Moving forward, I’m committed to helping these communities recover and rebuild.”

 

New York State Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Services Commissioner Jackie Bray said, “Our team continues to work around the clock to assist our local partners and assess damages in impacted counties. New Yorkers in the North Country will experience more rain tonight with potential for flooding. Stay alert and use extra caution if traveling tonight into tomorrow.”

Hits: 731

 

WESTCHESTER COUNTY YOUTH BUREAU HOSTS ‘INVEST FEST’ 2023

 

The engaging event will host recreational and fun-filled learning activities for 200 youth that promote social, emotional, physical and educational well-being.

 

Tuesday, July 11

11a.m.-2p.m.

Ridge Road Park

287 Ridge Road

Hartsdale, NY 10530

 

(White Plains, NY) –

The Westchester County Youth Bureau will host its third ‘Invest Fest’ celebrating 30 years of positive youth development programming made possible through the County’s Invest in Kids funding. The event will be held in collaboration with over 20 youth serving agencies on July 11 from 11a.m.-2p.m. at the County’s Ridge Road Park in Hartsdale.

‘Invest Fest’ will feature 25 different “Invest Stations” run by Invest in Kids program staff.  The stations will offer a variety of interactive experiences to keep the youth motivated and moving, ranging from charades, inflatable archery, giant jenga and selfie stations to mask making and fun trivia. There also will be an interactive hip-hop workshop by ‘Teens Under Construction.’

Youth Bureau Executive Director and ‘Invest Fest’ Creator Dr. DaMia Harris-Madden said: “This year’s theme, ‘Invest in You,’ coincides with the positive youth development philosophy of creating safe, nurturing environments that encourage belongingness. Too often, geography and resources limit youths’ ability to network and learn from each other. With 22+ agencies volunteering their resources, youth will have the opportunity to network and experience camaraderie with their peers, while gaining exposure to existing youth services and natural supports in the County.”

NEW YORK CITY SCHOOLS EXECUTIVE, 3 SOMMA FOOD GROUPS EXECS CONVICTED OF EXTORTION CONSPIRACY AND BRIBERY

Hits: 720

Former New York City Department of Education CEO of School Support Services and Three Executives of SOMMA Food Group Convicted of Extortion Conspiracy and Bribery

For Immediate Release

U.S. Attorney’s Office, Eastern District of New York
On June 28, a federal jury in Brooklyn returned guilty verdicts on all counts of a superseding indictment against Eric Goldstein, the former Chief Executive Officer of the New York City Department of Education’s (NYC DOE) Office of School Support Services, and Blaine Iler, Michael Turley and Brian Twomey, operators of a food services company, with conspiring to commit extortion under color of official right and solicitation and giving of bribes relating to programs receiving federal funds. 
The verdict followed a 4-week, trial before Visiting U.S. Circuit Judge Denny Chin.  When sentenced for Conspiracy to Commit Hobbs Act Extortion, Hobbs Act Extortion, Conspiracy to Commit Federal Program Bribery, Federal Program Bribery, Conspiracy to Commit Honest Services Wire Fraud, and Honest Services Wire Fraud, the defendants each face up to 20 years in prison as well as forfeiture and restitution penalties.

Breon Peace, United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York, announced the verdict.

“The defendants’ criminal conduct is a textbook example of choosing greed over the needs of our schools and the well-being of our children.  Our children depended on nutritious meals served in schools and instead, got substandard food products containing pieces of plastic, metal, and bones, which is unacceptable,” stated United States Attorney Peace.  “Today’s verdict demonstrates the consequences of corruptly placing personal profit over the public interests.”

Mr. Peace expressed his thanks to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, New York Field Office, for their outstanding investigative work on the case.

As proven at trial and contained in court filings, between 2008 and September 2018, Goldstein oversaw the management, budget, and operations of several NYC DOE departments, including the Office of Food and Nutrition Services (SchoolFood), which was responsible for managing the overall food service operation for all New York City public schools.

In early 2015, Iler, Turley, and Twomey created a food services company called SOMMA Food Group (SOMMA), to provide food products to retail and food service markets, including to K-12 schools across the United States. SOMMA promoted and sold yogurt, hamburgers, and antibiotic-free chicken products marketed under the brand name Chickentopia.

At or about the same time SOMMA was founded, Goldstein, Iler, Turley, and Twomey co-founded Range Meats Supply Company (RMSCO), to purchase grass-fed beef products that SOMMA, in turn, would then promote and sell under the brand name Range Meats to retail markets and New York City schools.

At the same time, Iler, Turley, and Twomey partnered with Goldstein in RMSCO, Iler, Turley and Twomey began to promote SOMMA’s products to SchoolFood officials and employees, all of whom reported to Goldstein in his role as OSS Chief Executive.

During a meeting with Iler in New York in July 2015, Goldstein told him, “I’m going to buy a lot of f—ing chicken from you guys, let’s do the beef.”

Between 2015 and December 2016, defendants Iler, Turley, and Twomey provided numerous benefits to Goldstein, including enticing Goldstein with potentially lucrative business opportunities and monetary payments to RMSCO for Goldstein’s benefit.

In exchange, Goldstein used his influence as head of SchoolFood to help Iler, Turley, and Twomey in SOMMA’s business dealings before SchoolFood.

Goldstein helped ensure that SchoolFood accepted SOMMA’s products for purchase, expedited the approval process and resolved disagreements between SOMMA and SchoolFood officials in SOMMA’s favor.

The defendants purposefully concealed Goldstein’s ownership interest in RMSCO from the NYC DOE while Goldstein was using his influence and public position at NYC DOE to benefit SOMMA.

In the fall of 2016, SchoolFood stopped serving SOMMA’s chicken tenders after a NYC DOE employee choked on a bone that had not been removed from a chicken tender supplied by SOMMA. 

Goldstein, who had final approval as to whether and when the chicken tenders would be allowed back in schools, delayed approving the reintroduction of the tenders until Iler, Turley, and Twomey agreed to transfer SOMMA’s ownership interest in RMSCO to Goldstein as well as to transfer $66,670 to a bank account in RMSCO’s name that Goldstein had opened and controlled.

Following weeks of negotiations, on November 29, 2016, Iler, Turley and Twomey agreed to pay the bribe Goldstein was soliciting and one day later, on November 30, 2016, Goldstein approved reintroduction of SOMMA’s chicken products in schools.

The products were served in schools until April 2017 when, following repeated complaints from students and staff that the chicken tenders continued to contain foreign objects. SchoolFood decided to remove all of SOMMA’s food products from New York City public schools.

The government’s case is being handled by the Office’s Public Integrity Section.  Assistant United States Attorneys Robert Polemeni, Andrew Grubin, Laura Zuckerwise, and Kaitlin McTague are in charge of the prosecution, with the assistance of Paralegal Specialists Rachel Friedman and Kavya Kannan.

The Defendants:

ERIC GOLDSTEIN
Age: 55
New Rochelle, New York

BLAINE ILER
Age: 35
Dallas, Texas

MICHAEL TURLEY
Age: 54
Fayetteville, Arkansas

BRIAN TWOMEY

WESTCHESTER SPARED BIG DAMAGE FROM SUNDAY MONSOON. MIGRANTS CONTINUE MODEL NEIGHBORS IN ARDSLEY, YONKERS AND WHITE PLAINS, COUNTY EXECUTIVE INDICATES. NO INCIDENTS. NO DISEASE OUTBREAKS, GOOD NEIGHBORS. NO ACTION ON STATE AND COUNTY REQUESTS FOR AMNESTY COURT OR PERMISSION TO WORK BY BIDEN ADMINISTRATION. (MIGRANTS IN LIMBO.)

Hits: 0

WPCNR COUNTY CLARION-LEDGER. By John F. Bailey. July 10, 2013:

In his Monday briefing today, County Executive George Latimer noted Westchester County was spared heavy damages from the torrential rains  that  swamped and flooded Orange and Rockland Counties Sunday with 14 inches of rain.

The County Executive said Route 6 to 9D  was “all blocked” in the Yorktown area was closed as crews continue to clear damage and downed trees at the 2 P.M. hour. Route  202 the east-west main cross route in Yorktown to Peekskill was blocked to Lexington Avenue in either direction. The Mayor of Peekskill reported on the update that the main road on the Peekskill waterfront was undermined by the rains and crews were assessing the damange.

Rail commuter service is disrupted.

The County Executive said the Harlem line stopped service at Southeast and buses would take commuters the rest of the way.  Service on the Hudson line had no service between Croton-Harmon and Poughkeepsie. Bus service would connect commuters to Poughkeepsie, roads permitted, of course.

On the migrant issue in Westchester where migrants transferred by Texas and other states then 350 of them housed in Ardsley, Yonkers and White Plains, Mr. Latimer had this to say. Nothing has changed. No new migrants at this time are planned to be housed in Westchester. But now in its sixth week, the county  is still awaiting approval and establishment of a interim amnesty court in White Plains and approval of migrants to work in the county from the Biden admnistration. The Department of Home Security has not responded in the last 3 weeks since being asked by Governor Hochul and Mr. Latimer to allow this to settle the migrants’ fates.

Here is Mr. Latimer’s  comment on the migrants today:

State Emergency Operations Center and State Fire Operations Center Activated to Respond to Local Requests for Assistance

New Yorkers Should Monitor Local Weather Forecast Through Monday As More Heavy Rain and Flooding Expected

Road Closures in Rockland, Westchester, Orange, Putnam, and Clinton Counties

 SUNDAY NIGHT Governor Hochul declared a State of Emergency for Orange County, where a reported eight inches of rain resulted in widespread flooding, numerous road closures, and other storm-related impacts.

At Governor Hochul’s direction, the New York State Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Services’ Office of Emergency Management activated the State Emergency Operations Center and is ready to support local requests for assistance.

DHSES’ Office of Fire Prevention and Control deployed four Swift Water Rescue teams and State Parks deployed an additional team on Sunday to the Mid-Hudson Region to assist with flood rescue efforts. DHSES field staff are also embedded at the Orange County Emergency Operations Center to facilitate local requests for assistance.

I’m issuing a State of Emergency in Orange County, which has experienced life-threatening conditions due to flash flooding,” Governor Hochul said. “We are approaching a critical point in this weather event, and New Yorkers must remain vigilant. Remember: avoid flooded roads, monitor your local forecasts and have an evacuation plan ready if you’re in a danger zone.”

DHSES is working closely with all impacted counties to coordinate response. Numerous roadways consisting of State Route 9W and Palisades Interstate Parkway are experiencing heavy flooding and washouts. The Palisades Parkway Northbound is closed from exit 14 to Long Mountain Traffic circle. As of Sunday evening, there were more than 12,000 power outages reported in Putnam, Dutchess, Albany, Ulster and Orange counties.

New York State Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Services Commissioner Jackie Bray said, “We are working closely with partner agencies and local governments to address flooding in the Mid-Hudson region this evening. We have been preparing over the last few days for this weather system and have been in close contact with local officials throughout the weekend. New Yorkers should take extra caution, if traveling, and stay alert.”

New York State Police Acting Superintendent Steven A. Nigrelli said, “The New York State Police is working with its agency and law enforcement partners in the Hudson Valley Region to get stranded motorists to safety. We have deployed additional troopers and resources including Swift Water Teams to assist those impacted by the flooding. This is an active emergency situation, and more storms are expected. We urge motorists to avoid the area for their safety.”

TODAY, thunderstorms forecast for the Capital Region, Central New York, Long Island, Mid-Hudson, Mohawk Valley, New York City, North Country, and Southern Tier Regions, and rain showers forecast for the Finger Lakes Region.

Excessive rainfall caused by slow-moving thunderstorms is likely to continue causing flash flooding and minor to isolated moderate river flooding into Monday. Most of the eastern portion of the state remains under a moderate risk for excessive rainfall Monday.

Severe Weather Safety Tips

Disaster Supplies

Have disaster supplies on hand, including:

  • Flashlight and extra batteries
  • Battery-operated radio and extra batteries
  • First aid kit and manual
  • Emergency food and water
  • Non-electric can opener
  • Essential medicines
  • Checkbook, cash, credit cards, ATM cards

Flash Flooding

  • Never attempt to drive on a flooded road. Turn around and go another way.
  • If water begins to rise rapidly around you in your car, abandon the vehicle immediately.
  • Do not underestimate the power of fast-moving water. Two feet of fast-moving flood water will float your car, and water moving at two miles per hour can sweep cars off a road or bridge.

Lightning

  • Follow the 30-30 rule: If the time between when you see a flash of lightning and hear thunder is 30 seconds or less, the lightning is close enough to hit you. Seek shelter immediately. After the last flash of lightning, wait 30 minutes before leaving your shelter.
  • Lightning hits the tallest object. If you are above a tree line, quickly get below it and crouch down if you are in an exposed area.
  • If you can’t get to a shelter, stay away from trees. If there is no shelter, crouch in the open, keeping twice as far away from a tree as it is tall.

Tornado

  • If outdoors and a Tornado Warning is issued, seek shelter immediately. If there is no shelter nearby, lie flat in a ditch or low spot with your hands shielding your head.
  • If at home or in a small building, go to the basement or an interior room on the lowest floor of the building. Stay away from windows. Closets, bathrooms, and other interior rooms offer the best protection. Get under something sturdy or cover yourself with a mattress.
  • If in a school, hospital, or shopping center, go to a pre-designated shelter area. Stay away from large open areas and windows. Do not go outside to your car.
  • If in a high-rise building, go to an interior small room or hallway on the lowest floor possible. Do not use elevators – use stairs instead.
